TOUCHDOWN, SHOOT UP
September 10th, 2007 | by HG |
I’ve seen people do a lot of things to celebrate a victory by their team. Most of it was fun, some of it was stupid, and a little bit was dangerous. None of it was life threatening. Leave it to high school sports fans in Central Florida to crank dat celebration… By busting their guns in the air.
Friday night, hundreds of spectators escaped injury at the Florida Citrus Bowl when gunfire erupted after the prep football matchup between Jones and Evans high schools. It was the latest incident of celebratory gunfire — a risky act becoming common at athletic events and holidays in Central Florida.
Luckily nobody was hurt during the shooting, and even more amazing, nobody got shot after a basketball game earlier in the year:
More than 100 bullets were fired after the schools’ annual basketball game in January. No one was injured in the crowd of at least 400 teens and young adults when the bursts of muzzle flashes lit up a parking lot on South Orange Blossom Trail.
The city of Detroit thinks C. Florida is gangsta.. What I have to wonder is, if they’re lickin’ off shots after a victory, what do they do when they lose?
